  • "Breast cancer stole my voice! The VMU gave it me back."

    David M

  • "I really enjoy attending the zoom meetings. It's a great comfort to be with other men who have gone through what I have."

    Mike C

  • "I have always thought that men with breast cancer needed their own space. We need each other. Thankfully this is exactly what I found at the Men’s VMU, a safe place where we can all talk openly about our breast cancer experiences together."

    Roger N

  • "I attend the VMU when I can as it is a valuable source of mutual support, to meet other men living with or surviving breast cancer and to share our experiences. It's also a good opportunity to help raise the profile of breast cancer in men by contributing to charity campaigns, research and lobbying regarding male breast cancer".

    Geoff S

  • "I really enjoy attending the zoom meetings. It's a great comfort to be with other men who have gone through what I have."

    Mike R

  • "The VMU is a great forum for male breast cancer patients old and new to share their experiences, provide support and realise you’re not alone."

    Neil C

  • "The VMU has helped me too! I've never heard Neil talk about his breast cancer like he does on that call".

    Pam C

  • "The Men's VMU has given me a platform where I can discuss having Breast Cancer with other Men in the same situation."

    Stuart W

  • "The VMU is a huge support. As much as my friends listened and cared deeply for me when I was diagnosed, they couldn't totally understand what I went through as a man with breast cancer."

    Mark W

  • "For anyone recently diagnosed it is an essential resource for their ongoing treatment and follow-up."

    Mike G

  • “To know what other people have been treated with, what side effects they have suffered, what other men have suffered through, that is invaluable.”

    Doug H

  • "For decades men with breast cancer have lacked proper support outlets. The VMU has addressed this by providing a much-needed online discussion forum where men with breast cancer can meet to support each other. It is an excellent initiative and is redressing some of the inequalities experienced by men with breast cancer."

    Professor Valerie Speirs

  • "One word: safety. I feel safe in this group."

    Dave T

  • "By talking at the VMU about what scares us, it helps us overcome the fear that cancer brings with it"
